Josh Thole won't be able to resume baseball activities for four months after having surgery on his left hamstring late last month.

"I had two ligaments that were separated from the bone and they just went in and reattached them," Thole said. The veteran catcher will miss the season and is considering playing winter ball to make up for lost time. He signed a minor league deal with the Diamondbacks back in January. Apr 9 - 8:37 AM

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo expects him to miss the entire 2017 season. Thole is considering surgery and will seek a second opinion. Even if he had stayed healthy, Thole would have been a long shot to make Arizona's Opening Day roster. The Diamondbacks are already well-stocked at catcher with Chris Herrmann, Chris Iannetta and Jeff Mathis. Mar 18 - 3:53 PM

Diamondbacks signed C Josh Thole to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

A career .242/.313/.306 hitter, the 30-year-old Thole enters a crowded catching situation in Arizona with Jeff Mathis, Chris Iannetta and Chris Herrmann already in tow. He seems unlikely to make the Opening Day roster. Jan 23 - 7:00 PM

Chris Owings (finger) will not be on the Diamondbacks' roster for the NL Wild Card Game.

Owings landed on the 60-day disabled list July 31 with a fractured right middle finger and is still rehabbing. If the Diamondbacks advance to the National League Division Series, there is a possibility Owings could be a participant. He has been playing in instructional league games at the club's spring training complex.

Tomas first went on the disabled list back in early June and encountered multiple setbacks along the way. It amounts to a lost season for the 26-year-old, as he hit only .241/.294/.464 with eight homers while being limited to 47 games. The Diamondbacks tried to trade Tomas last winter and it wouldn't be a surprise if they try again this winter, although the market for him might not be there.

Shelby Miller (elbow) threw off of flat ground on Monday for the first time since undergoing Tommy John surgery in May.

It's a good sign for Miller, who reportedly threw from 45 feet around 40 times. It's still unlikely we'll see the right-handed hurler on a mound in a meaningful game until the middle of the 2018 season. He'll be arbitration-eligible this winter.

Randall Delgado will be given a platelet-rich plasma injection in his right elbow on Thursday.

Delgado is working his way back from a strained flexor tendon. He's obviously done for the regular season, but the Diamondbacks haven't officially ruled him out for a potential return during the playoffs.
